A review of non‐native scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Coccoidea) of Australia and the challenges in maintaining current and accurate pest lists

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Over 870 species of scale insects, also called coccoids (infraorder Coccomorpha), have been recorded from Australia. Here, we systematically review literature, databases and collections to provide a revised assessment of non‐native species to Australia, for which we confirm those species that are introduced and extant in Australia (including ...

Phylogenetic reconciliation provides new insights into the evolutionary diversification of the glutamine synthetase gene family in seed plants

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 859-877, February 2026.
Phylogenetic analyses of glutamine synthetase (GS) in seed plants revealed that all three major evolutionary lineages (GS2, GS1a, and GS1b) must have been present in the common ancestor, with GS2 being the first lineage to diverge. Unlike GS1b, GS1a and GS2 are usually single‐copy genes, even though they underwent duplications that resulted in ...

Spatial and Seasonal Analysis of Phyllosphere Bacterial Communities of the Epiphytic Gymnosperm Zamia pseudoparasitica

Applied Biosciences
Phyllosphere microbial communities influence the growth and productivity of plants, particularly in epiphytic plants, which are disconnected from nutrients available in the soil. We characterized the phyllosphere of 30 individuals of the epiphytic cycad,

Locus coeruleus alterations in dementia with Lewy bodies: A systematic review

Alzheimer's &Dementia: Translational Research &Clinical Interventions, Volume 12, Issue 1, January/March 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION The locus coeruleus (LC) is a small nucleus located deep within the brainstem, serving as the brain's main source of noradrenergic neurons. Through its extensive projections, it plays a critical role in regulating cognitive processes and arousal.

Cryptic signals: substomatal architecture influences stomatal responses to red light and CO2

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 181-188, January 2026.
Summary The mesophyll provides a critical signal for stomatal responses to red light (RL) and CO2 in angiosperms. By contrast, the stomatal response to blue light (BL) is largely guard cell‐specific. It is not known whether substomatal or mesophyll anatomy influences the effectiveness of the mesophyll signal driving stomatal responses to RL and CO2 ...

Changes in the Carotenoids of Zamia dressleri Leaves during Development

Plants
It has been observed that the leaves of some Zamia species undergo a kind of “reverse ripening”; that is, they change from their original brown color to green during development.

Evidence for an ancient whole genome duplication in the cycad lineage.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Contrary to the many whole genome duplication events recorded for angiosperms (flowering plants), whole genome duplications in gymnosperms (non-flowering seed plants) seem to be much rarer.

Predictors of Wing Attacks by Birds Across Australian Butterflies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Predation pressure can vary latitudinally and across different prey communities as well as between males and females of the same prey species. Here, the variation in predation pressure on Australian butterflies was assessed using wing damage caused by bird attacks in over 2310 individuals from five butterfly families.
